TTC After a Loss

Home all day and want to POAS

I was actually hoping to go to work, so I can be distracted and wait to POAS. It snowed and I am working from home. Today is 8dpo and want to POAS so bad.  I don't know why because I have no hopes for PG this cycle. I have absolutely no symptoms at all.  My first PG that I lost in Sep, I had really sore BBs by this time.  I am kinda sad and a BFN is not going to help.  I am so tired of TTC :-( 

I had to let this all out because I am sad today.  I need a hug

    Can you hold out for a couple more days? 8dpo is really early!

  • The 2WW is definitely a test of patience, but don't POAS just yet!  8 DPO is too early to test and give up hope.  ((Hugs))
    Anniversary BFP #1: 5-20-10, m/c 5-29-10 @ 5w6d BFP #2: 8-04-10, missed m/c discovered 8-31-10, d&c 9-02-10 BFP #3: 4-08-11 ~ EDD: 12-16-11 Praying that the third time's a charm... Please get comfy & stick around LO!
  • Right Hug You could always go and make a snowman baby in your backyard! Bake some cookies? Watch a chic-flic? 8DPO is waay to early to test without the odds on the strong side of a heartache.

  • (((hugs)))  You know very good and well that 8 DPO is too early, so fight the urge!  Someone here on TTCAL (forgot the name) picked a date, and she said that would be the day that she plans to test.  Maybe you could do the same, pick a date and let us help cheer you on to wait until that day.  You can do it!

  • Well, I'm getting pretty late to the party, but agree with pp - step away from the stick.  (Or, if you have the cheapies, go ahead and POAS, but try not to get too bummed if it's a BFN, you still have a couple of days...)   I know it's not easy.
